Kod: MGH312

The course addresses the epistemological starting points for qualitative research. It also presents and discusses various examples of methodological approaches that have been developed to qualitatively study specific phenomena, such as phenomenology, discourse analysis, grounded theory and thematic content analysis. Exercises where these methodological approaches are applied in the formulation of an intended qualitative study are also included. Within the framework of the course, study design is treated with a focus on the formulation of purpose and questions, choice of research theme, theoretical and methodological approaches. It also discusses strategies for dissemination of results and how a study is justified, based on scientific and ethical principles. The course also deals with international ethical guidelines for research and how these are implemented in different parts of the world.
